surprise surprise

Im in USA!!!

got to las cruces today at noon, i had enough setbacks for a trip…

Got a fire alarm in london airport and at chicago the line to go through the customs and passport verification was so big that i lost the flight to El Paso. I night at the hotel and a early run in chicago. It was pretty fun actually, at least after the first 10 minutes where i almost freeezed… i never ran with snow but i made my way to a beautiful park with lots of trails and frozen lake, really nice, 1:10 of running and i would be back to the airport to catch my rebooked flight.

I got to El Paso airport where Jonhy and Khai where waiting, a drive to my “new base” and i went straight to the pool. Great weather, a bit of wind but nothing is new for me here, i have benn here twice before. After a 4400m swim i went back home to build my bike and ran another 1h, shower, grocery shopping than that was it. my Day 1 (kinda) here in las cruces.

Final stage of my training to IMAZ, ive done 99% of the homework in portugal, just a couple of weeks more and i am all set for the race :D
